Roman Slave Owner

Appius' complexion changed drastically, he didn't expect Li Wei to kill himself.

General, what happened that day was all a misunderstanding. I didn't know he was doing that kind of thing. If I knew, I would definitely stop him. Here I express my deep apologies to you on behalf of him, and I am willing to make any compensation.

Appius said quickly.

Okay, I accept your apology, now go and execute the order, don't let Mithrada run away.

Li Wei said lightly.

Appius looked helpless, is this the way you startled us? In the end, he could only say: I hope you will let him go once for the sake of Claudia and my father.

Cough...cough...

Li Wei couldn't help coughing twice, this is really...

Unexpectedly, they all knew that there really is no impenetrable wall in this world.

So did the Metellus family know? Li Wei suddenly felt guilty.

But soon he became angry from embarrassment: When Sulla declared you to be the public enemy of Rome, I have already saved your life. Even if your father is still alive, Publius will still make you a public enemy of Rome.

I know your relationship with your sister, so I hope you can let him go again.

Appius said.

When you asked Lamia to go to the Senate to sue me, I already let you off once for her sake. I warned you afterwards, but obviously you didn't take my warning seriously.

Levi said.

We're willing to pay any price.

Appius said.

At any cost?

Hearing this, Li Wei laughed.

There is nothing a politician can't trade.

Enemies today may be closest friends tomorrow, given enough benefits.

But Li Wei didn't want to forgive Publius in this way, what he did was too much.

I know that someone is secretly organizing an alliance against you, and I can tell you all about them.

Appius said.

Who is it?

Levi asked.

The Metellus family, the Dumigios family, and several other veteran nobles, have been collecting the mistakes you made, and are ready to find an opportunity to defeat you in one fell swoop.

Appius said.

Li Wei's eyes shrink, they are all his old opponents.

Do they know about my relationship with Claudia?

Levi asked.

It should have received a little wind.

Appius said.

Now Li Wei was embarrassed, and it really didn't end well for stealing food.

Actually, as long as you are willing to divorce Emilia, we can marry Claudia to you at any time.

Appius said.

Compared with the Metellus family, Li Wei is much stronger in both power and potential.

Huge wealth, great achievements, and the founder of the holy religion, these are all things that cannot be compared with the Metellus family.

If you can marry Li Wei, it will be much better than the Metellus family.

This is impossible.

Levi said.

After Emilia said that he was willing to advance and retreat with him, he vowed not to let her down.

As for the relationship between Monimie and the others, cough. . . cough. . . This cannot be regarded as disappointing her.

According to the regulations of the holy religion, each person can marry eight wives.

If you donate to the Holy Church, you can marry more wives.

As the founder of the holy religion, Livy should lead by example.

Moreover, Li Wei decided to amend the Roman law at an appropriate time, and thoroughly make this teaching law the law of the whole of Rome.

Although Rome's military strength is strong, it is always outnumbered, even those nobles are no exception.

A lot of territory has been laid down, but there is a lack of population to occupy these areas. This is inseparable from monogamy.

On the contrary, whether it is China with one wife and multiple concubines, or a certain man who can marry four wives, his fertility is beyond the charts, leaving Rome far behind.

The deepest hidden secrets are revealed face to face,

This made it difficult for Li Wei to treat Appius toughly.

Lucullus looked weird, but this kind of thing is really common in Rome, just like Caesar's lovers are famous.

As long as you let Publius go, our Pulker family is willing to support you, and the Claudius clan that has made friends with us is also willing to support you.

Appius continued.

Li Wei hesitated, whether it is the Roman Republic or the Roman Empire, the Claudius clan is an extremely powerful clan.

In addition to the Purker family, the most powerful Claudius clan at the end of the Republic was the Marchelus clan, all of whom played very important roles.

In addition, the strength of the Nero family is also quite good, and their descendants even produced a very famous Roman emperor.

Do you want to be an unscrupulous politician?

You must help me conceal my relationship with Claudia.

Li Wei finally said.

No problem, I swear on the honor of the family, unless you admit it yourself, we will never admit your relationship with Claudia.

Appius said happily.

It is a very serious oath to swear on the honor of the family, and every nobleman attaches great importance to the honor of the family.

This is the difference between them and ordinary people, and it is also the basis for them to show their talents in the political arena.

Donate another 6 million dinars to the Holy Church, and this matter will be over.

Li Wei said that it was impossible to ask him to forgive them in a few words.

He must bleed them hard and let them remember this lesson.

This...is it too much, can it be less. How about 3 million dinars?

Appius' face changed.

6 million dinars is a huge amount of money for any family, even Li Wei is no exception. If they spend so much money, their Pulkel family will definitely be seriously injured.

This is non-negotiable.

Levi said.

Four million dinars.

Appius pleaded.

Li Wei stared at him coldly, without speaking.

Appius looked bitter, and he knew that if he said anything else, Li Wei would turn his back on him.

Okay, I agree.

Well then, you don't need to go to the 3rd Thracian Brigade. I still have things to do, so you go back first.

Li Wei unceremoniously issued a deportation order, and Luculus and Appius had no choice but to leave here in despair.

***

Time flies, the cold winter finally passed, and the early spring came.

Li Wei's army is busy, preparing to go to Syria and launch an expedition to the Arabs on the east bank of the Jordan River.

At this time, Lucias brought him a message.

A Scythian said he knew where Mithridates was, but he wanted us to honor our bounty and spare any of his tribe who had been captured.

After hearing the news, Li Wei was ecstatic.

Tell him there's no problem, and bring him over to see me.

Not long after, a Scythian wearing a leather jacket was brought here.
